The third in the Rats Trilogy, this is apocalyptic survival at its most terrifying in which James Herbert pits man against mutant rats who are back with a vengeance. The long-dreaded nuclear conflict. The city torn apart, shattered, its people destroyed or mutilated beyond hope. For just a few, survival is possible only beneath the wrecked streets - if there is time to avoid the slow-descending poisonous ashes. But below, the rats, demonic offspring of their irradiated forebears, are waiting. They know that Man is weakened, become frail, and has become their prey. London has been decimated as buildings, cars, houses, bridges and roads are destroyed and those still standing are rocking to their core. Culver leads a small group of characters into a radiation dominated city, heading underground where they meet Kate who becomes his 'love interest'. Buy all three in the trilogy: The Rats, Lair and Domain. 482 page paperback.
